When I first looked at the Sale-abration Catalog, the stamp set So Very Much jumped out at me. I love that giant Thank You stamp. In fact, it's so big it really can be your focal point on your card. Yay for quick and easy! The script is so swirly and pretty, and far better than my handwriting. This card goes together really quickly. I did a watercolor wash on the White card stock and didn't worry too much about … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday – So Very Much

Roadtrip Recap
Last Friday, the four of us hit the road for Phoenix. It's a long story, but we ended up having to take the Camaro. :) Yep, we fit the four of us and our luggage in the Camaro. Amazing! Probably not the best decision to take a car that gets only 12 miles to the gallon. But, our options were limited. At least it gave us a chance to stop at gas stations and stretch our legs (have you seen how small the backseat is in a Camaro?). At one … [Read more...] about Roadtrip Recap
Work It Wednesday – Washi Tape
Today’s Tool is Washi Tape! If you’ve checked out Pinterest or any craft blogs, you’ll notice a new syndrome that’s become very common. It’s called Washi Hoarding. This is how it starts… you’re in a craft store and you happen upon the Wall O’ Washi Tape. It all looks so pretty in those fabulously organized rows. You decide you’re going to buy one roll. Hmmm, but which one to get? There’s two you really like. Actually they are not that expensive. … [Read more...] about Work It Wednesday – Washi Tape
One last Easter Treat
Just a quick post today. A couple weeks ago I shared an Easter treat bag that I'd come up with. You can see it here. Here is another version of this treat bag with a cute chickie stamp. So cute! He looks like he has a fuzzy belly! I love these adorable honeycombs. They come in white, blue, and pink. I colored the white ones yellow. Here are all the Easter treats I made for all of the place settings today. The little chickie is from … [Read more...] about One last Easter Treat
Five Minute Friday
Today I'm sharing a quick and easy bunny tag that you can add to your Easter basket. This is the tag that I made. I know what you're thinking. You're wondering where I got that adorable bunny punch/die because you didn't see one in the Stampin Up Catalog. I gotta tell you, you've seen exactly what I used but you may not have added all the pieces together yet. Using these three items, you get a bunny punch! Flower Fair Framelits Dies - … [Read more...] about Five Minute Friday
Easter Countdown!
Oh my goodness! Easter is next Sunday! How is that possible?!? Is this year whizzing by? Or is it just me? Obviously, I need to get myself in gear and get some Easter goodies and cards made. Last week at our Downline Meeting, we made this adorable card using the Friends and Flowers stamp set. This stamp set is all pieces that you can assemble into flowers or creatures. This is one set that I resisted purchasing. But after seeing what Chrissie … [Read more...] about Easter Countdown!
